I've made it to Winterhold college at last. Henry was right, they are still accepting students! The journey wasn't too hard on me, with the wagon service taking most of the bulk off my shoulders. Upon arriving I witnessed an argument between Mirabelle Ervine who I suspect is a breton and an Altmer named Ancano. I don't know what it was about only catching the tail end of the conversation, but hopefully the matter is settled.
On a more personal note, I'm sure by now my father has heard of my departure from the enlisting lines. I doubt I'll be able to step foot in Rihad again and remain intact. I'll be branded as a coward and Tava help me, they may be right.
